Background:

ED Resuscitations

Background

Team leading during resuscitations

• High cognitive load
• Situational awareness
• Communication

Current System

Improve access to key data during resuscitation

Project Goal

Requirements of Solution

• Leverage existing technology
• Display key data from multiple sources
• Easily visible / digestible format
• Require minimal (or no) user interaction

Test System

Capabilities – Front Screen

Front Screen Capabilities

Front Screen – Video Laryngoscope Output

Rear Screen Capabilities

Study Objective

Assess provider perception of accessibility of key data prior to and after implementation of the large screen electronic dashboard

Methods

• Setting

– Resuscitation suite – High volume ED – Large, tertiary care children’s hospital

• Patients

– Critically ill – Medical and Traumatic etiologies

Methods

• Custom-designed survey (Qualtrics)

– Respondents

• MD team leaders
• RN team leaders

– Primary outcome

• Perceived accessibility of key data during

resuscitations

– Secondary outcomes

• Perceived importance of key data during resuscitations
• Reason for perceived importance
• Statistical Analysis

– Paired samples t-tests to compare mean differences

Primary Outcome

Accessibility of Data Elements

Vital Signs

• Current
• Previous
• Trend

Lab results

• Point of care
• Sent to Lab

Duration of Resuscitation

• Time since start

Radiographic studies

• Image available
• Reading available

Medications

• Name
• Dose administered
• Time since dose

administered Procedures

• Procedures performed
• Time since procedure

performed

• View of ETT passing vocal

cords during Intubation

• Test Period: Jan 12 – Mar 16, 2015
• Completion of survey

– 21/45 (47%) eligible MDs – 12/25 (48%) eligible RNs

Inclusion Criteria Patients Seen in Test Bay Length of Stay (Range in Min) MD Providers (including 3rd year fellows) RN Team Leader Providers Medical, Trauma Alerts and Trauma Stats 271 8 - 185 40 38

Results

Secondary Outcomes

• Perceived importance of data elements

– Mean scores > 4 for all

• Except time elapsed since the start of the resuscitation

– Scale: 1-6

• 4 = Important
• 5 = Very Important
• 6 = Essential

• Impact of data accessibility

– Timeliness of decisions – Situational awareness – Ability to assess patient

• “KEEP IT” – 100% of respondents

– NO changes – 35% – MINOR changes – 63% – MAJOR changes – 2%

Secondary Outcomes

Limitations

• Method

– Survey: not validated

• Improvement noted in data not expected to improve

– Current Vital Signs – Number of doses of medication given – Overall improved situational awareness and decreased cognitive load?

• Outcomes chosen

– Provider satisfaction – Did not measure outcome on patient

• Very difficult to study

– Heterogeneity and rarity of presentations – Selection of measures / outcomes – Time / Resource Intensive

Conclusion

The development and implementation of a large screen electronic dashboard significantly improved physician and nursing team leaders’ perception of accessibility of key data required during resuscitative care.

Next Steps

• Improving our solution
• Install in remaining resuscitation bays?

Questions

Projected cost per Bay

• < $20,000

– 2 large screen LEDs – 2 processor systems – Cable, HDMI plate, other equipment – Mouse and pad controller – Construction costs

• Priceless

– CCHMC EPIC analyst time and effort to customize and interact with EPIC to perfect / improve system

Our Team

• Multidisciplinary input

– PEM physician – Experienced RN team leader – EPIC analyst – Trauma services RN – Quality improvement experts – Parent Advisory Committee

Perceived importance of Key Data

Reasons for Perceived importance

Background – Our Story

• Setting - CCHMC Emergency Department (ED)

– Total Volume (annual) ~100,000 patient encounters – April 1, 2014 – March 31, 2015

• ED – 62,991
• Resuscitation Suite – 3,753 (6%)

– Medical – 2095 (56%) – Trauma Alert or Stat – 402 (11%)

Resuscitation Team Make-up

• MDs

– PEM Team Leaders (45) – Bedside MDs (Residents – Pediatric, EM, Family) – Trauma Surgery (Resident, Fellow, Attending)

• RNs

– Trauma Core RN Team leaders (38) – Bedside, Medication RNs

• Additional (integrated and ad hoc)

– Paramedics – Patient Care Attendants – OR Staff – Anesthesia

SMART Aim Key Drivers Interventions (LOR #) Increase the % of survey respondents who selected easy on the accessibility to key data in STS from X to Y using a pre and post-survey by 5/1/15

Population: ED MD and RN team leaders

Accumulation of data over time Accumulation of data from multiple sources Appropriate utilization and maximization of technology Appropriate team make-up Create a communication board as a patient log (LOR 1) Integrate STS dashboard (LOR 2) Clear communication

Key Gray shaded box = completed intervention Green shaded box = what we’re working on right now LOR # = Level of Reliability Number, e.g., LOR 1

Improving the Availability of Data

Key Driver Diagram (KDD) Project Leader(s): Andrea Rinderknecht, MD Mary Frey, RN Revision Date: 3/19/2015 Improve safety, quality, and reliability of care for STS patients Global Aim Add staff resources to gather and communicate data (LOR 1) Remove barriers to data entry/display (LOR 1) Implement a BPA/reminder to review vitals every 5 minutes (LOR 2) Improve team leader cognitive capacity (LOR 1) Limitations of current technology

Resuscitation Suite Documentation

• Electronic Medical Record

– November 2012

• Improved documentation (more detailed)
• Negative effect on RN team leader’s capacity to co-team
